Asbestos survey for Waldron properties
Our surveys in Waldron cover homes, rented property, shops, offices, schools and industrial units.

Questions from Waldron
Is asbestos common in Waldron homes?
If your home in Waldron was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you cannot tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work near Buxted station?
Yes, we cover Waldron and the area towards Buxted station, about 4.1 miles north-west.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
How can I get a price?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material. Then call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Do you survey commercial buildings in Waldron?
We do: shops, offices, warehouses, industrial units, schools and halls. Tell us about the building and what you need.
Should you do it yourself?
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
How it works
A management survey involves minor intrusion: lifting ceiling tiles, opening service cupboards and taking small samples. We seal up each sample point. We keep the work area clear of other people while we work, so please keep children and pets away.
- Let us know the address and why you need a survey
- We check whether a management, refurbishment and demolition or pre-purchase survey fits, and confirm the areas
- Our surveyor carries out the inspection and sampling
- Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
- You receive the report, with results and what to do next
Before we arrive
- Keep the area clear of children and pets
- Clear the way to the work area
- Mention any damage before we arrive
Getting a price
If you have a survey or test result, include it when you use our quote form or call 07833 053 749; it helps us quote accurately.

The scope of an asbestos survey
Some limits to bear in mind:
- A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it is not enough before refurbishment
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so plan it around the building’s use
- A survey identifies asbestos; it doesn’t remove it
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials in Waldron
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Water tanks and flues
- Pipe lagging
- Artex and textured coatings
- Ceiling tiles
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Garage and shed roofs
Weighing up your options
An old survey may not be enough. If it was a management survey, it won’t have looked inside the fabric of the building where you are about to work, so planned refurbishment generally needs a refurbishment and demolition survey of those areas. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. We quote each job individually.

Looking after things afterwards
Material in good condition often does not need removing. The report tells you what to keep an eye on.
Keeping things safe:
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
- Ensure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
- Survey first, then book the trades
Things not to do
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know.
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know, rather than cleaning it up.
Duty holders and landlords in Waldron
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.

Common reasons for surveys in Waldron
Many buildings have been extended, refitted and repaired over the years, so asbestos can turn up in later additions as well as original features, so a survey checks the whole scope, not just obvious spots.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises
- Planned refurbishment work
- Demolition of garages, extensions and buildings
- Pre-purchase checks on older properties
Altering an older house in Waldron, wherever it is? The rooms being worked on need surveying before the builders arrive.
